The winner of the 2013 Nursery World award for School Early Years Team of the Year was High Greave Infant School in Rotherham. Over the past two years, the school has transformed its provision, leaving children feeling secure and confident to learn, teachers free to teach and parents better able to support children's learning.
Early years consultant Penny Tassoni, who worked with the school on part of its reforms, says, 'High Greave has turned around its early years provision through the determination of its staff and head teacher.
'It has focused carefully on the needs of children and has prioritised play and communication opportunities both indoors and outdoors. It is a great example of what can be achieved when a team has a clear vision of what is needed and are ready to put in plenty of hard work.'
